Pyro! (C) 1988 By: Steve Jacobs & Jim Boyd
THIS PROGRAM IS FREEWARE, UPLOAD IT! GIVE IT TO YOUR FRIENDS AND ENEMIES!
OR THROW IT AWAY IF YOU WISH!
Pyro! is a screen blanking program that goes beyond the normal screen
blanking process. If there are ABSOLUTELY NO input events (mouse movements,
keyboard presses or disks inserted or removed) Pyro! Takes over and starts
a little fireworks display in color! Like real fireworks displays it has a
few duds too! As soon as Pyro! detects any input messages it closes down the
fireworks display and you are right back where you were.
To Unload Pyro! press and hold down the left ALT key (first) and the CTRL
key. Pyro! will tell you if it cleaned itself up.
Future enhancements:
1- Make Fireworks display more realistic.
2- Add sound effects.
3- Drink a beer and watch the show!
Oh Yea. The no events time is preset at 5 minutes. This means if there are
no input events for 5 minutes you get a free fireworks display!
What do we want for this? Frankly, other than being a neet little hack it
doesn't do much other than save your monitor from burn in. So what we want
is for Amiga users to have fun with it and make BETTER little hacks like this
one!
